Making a modern statement in Redmond

As downtown Redmond transforms into a mixed-use, walkable community, Aria makes a unique contribution to the new urban fabric. It offers the quiet comfort of a suburban lifestyle next to Anderson Park, while delivering the proximity of a rapidly developing city. Our challenge was to create a building with distinctive architecture that stands out to tenants.

Sculpted beauty, refined detailing

We created a modern, monolithic form with sculpted edges—a building that exudes effortless grace. Notable highlights include its corner detailing, the high-quality facade panels that employ a real wood veneer, and a mechanical parking system. We maximized the quality and character of the apartments with premium finishes and towering ceilings—up to 19 feet in some loft units. Unique co-working and entertainment amenities cater to residents working in technology and beyond.

Creating space for views

Two thirds of the apartments have private outdoor patios or balconies, some overlooking the greenspace of neighboring Anderson Park and others offering territorial and Mt. Rainier views. Top-level loft units have two patios, one off of the living space with roof openings to the sky and one that connects discreetly to the resident rooftop terrace deck overlooking the park. From the sidewalk, the combination of street-level loft apartments and commercial space creates a vibrant pedestrian experience for residents, visitors and the public.

Program: Apartments, lobby lounge, landscaped entry plaza, co-working space, commercial space, bike lounge, dog wash, club room, rooftop deck.
